      Spinning hamster wheel - Deputy Chief of Staff Lyft Employee Review

      3.0
      Jul 17, 2024
      Deputy chief of staff

      Pros

      The people are incredibly smart, mission driven, and fun.

      Cons

      Gossipy culture, low morale, and feels like there's a lot of "hurry up and wait." A lot of things that are "extremely high priority" and we are made to do a lot of work but then it's never used. Also WAY too much reporting / justifying the team's existence, almost constantly.

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Academic environment that has a lot of interesting science problems from mapping, optimization, plus all the usual user metrics. Rewarding and complex problems that often have a lo t of tradeoff.

      Cons

      For how good the ICs are, leadership is equally bad. Just riddled with poor decisions top/down. Also given the current state, Uber is just too strong of a competitor and you feel that pressure every day.
